The long sleeve shirt "Refit" RE: DESCENTE PROJECT*1 DESCENTE SEED series*2 is made from Japanese KAMITO+ fabric, which utilizes uniquely textured KAMITO – Japanese-made paper yarn made in the same way as traditional Japanese paper, and has natural deodorant and heat-shielding properties. It In addition to the main fabric, all other materials used in its construction, including care labels and sewing threads, are biodegradable. in line with our OT concept*3 principles, a chest pocket is placed between the inner and outer fabrics, the shoulder line is flattened, and all sewing specs are based on comfort considerations. This long sleeve shirt combines functionality with environmentally friendly natural materials, with a unique texture.
*1 RE: DESCENTE PROJECT is a corporate social responsibility program in sustainability with a focus on environmental conservation. Our aim is to work towards creating, for the children who will shape the future, a society with less impact on the global environment.
*2 The DESCENTE SEED series uses Japanese paper based KAMITO, a functional material derived from natural wood pulp, as its main fabric. It addresses both environmental considerations and garment comfort and all materials used, including trims and labels, are biodegradable.
*3 OT concept is our unique pattern engineering and sewing technology aimed at improving comfort where there is skin contact with the garment, through reducing sewing overall as much as possible and minimizing internal seams.

RE: DESCENTE SEED.
The RE: DESCENTE SEED series uses mainly functional, naturally derived materials – with biodegradability the keyword for all of them. And not only for the fabrics. We are very particular in selecting associated trim materials that are also biodegradable. The focus of the whole series is to express both care for the environment as well as natural comfort.
KAMITO+ is a fabric whose main raw material is the same natural fibre used in traditional Japanese paper (Washi). Washi is made mainly from thinned wood from coniferous trees and Manila hemp, grown with relatively fewer pesticides. The material is environmentally friendly even in the manufacturing process, and is characterized by the unique texture and touch of Japanese paper. The raw material in KAMITO+ has a natural deodorant property and can suppress the smell of sweat (ammonia, acetic acid and isovaleric acid). Because it is not chemically processed, the deodorant effect also continues even after washing.
The fabrics in our SEED series utilize biodegradable wood pulp-based paper yarn* similar to that used in traditional Japanese hand-made paper (Washi). In addition, we are carefully selecting biodegradable materials for all garment labels, buttons, sewing threads and bonding materials. A SEED 100 hang tag is attached to garments where all, or almost all, materials are biodegradable, but in cases where existing technology or functional requirements do not permit 100% use of biodegradable materials, a SEED 50 hang tag is used. We are continuing to work towards the goal of achieving the SEED 100 standard for all products.
*Biodegradability depends on soil conditions (JIS K 6955 test)
